Supplements for Altzheimer's Disease?

Question:

My mother-in-law has acted strangely for years, but was only diagnosed 3 years ago. She has been on Aricept for three years. She can still walk, rarely speaks, wanders, wrings her hands, and has lost weight down to 85lbs. My Father in law has recently started giving her prescription sleeping pills (from her doctor) to help control the wandering. Do you have any supplement suggestions at this point? She is 62.

Answers:
Since she's on meds, which can deplete nutrients, she would probably need good liquid multiple vitamin (to increase the absorption.) Without that, everything else might not work as desired.

High doses of PS (phosphytidylserine) combined with DHA has been shown to improve brain function as measured on PET scans. You'd probably need 500 mg of PS and 300 mgs of DHA. Fish oil contains DHA.

Vitamin World makes a product called NeuroPS Gold that contains those two ingredients along with other brain nutrients.

I'd also include a product such as Vitalzyme, a protein enzyme product. Alzheimer's involves tangles in the brain. Within those tangles are imflammatory proteins, and the protein enzymes help to dissolve the sticky proteins causing the tangles.

Chelation therapy has also miraculously restored the health of seriously senile patients. This can be done either orally or intravenously.

Good luck and be well.

I was a care giver for an Alzheimer's patient who was 84. Some of the vitamin supplements that we gave him were, Vitamin E and vitamin A, one capsule each twice a day, Fish Oil pills, one capsule twice a day, Ginko Biloba, one pill twice a day. These seemed to help, though I must admit, when we took him off of all sugar, he did really well. Unfortunately, the Alzheimer patients that I've worked with all seem to have something in common, they have what I call this "dump" where, like a computer, they suddenly dump out information and when they return to their awareness of everyday life, that block of memory is gone, it simply vanishes. I don't know if you've experienced this with your mother-in-law, but I hope that these supplements help her. My best wishes to you all and for her and your father-in-law...it doesn't get any easier. It seems that a diet low in fat, low in sugar and high in fiber seems to help matters for them. My heart goes out to the family. I'll be thinking of you all...

Well, I am a detox specialist who helps people get rid of their health problems via detox.

One of the health foods I know is good for helping patients with Alzheimer's patients.

I had a client who bought the health foods for her mum as her mum's health was not very good. Her mum somehow decided to feed it to her father (that is my client's grandfather) who was suffering from Alzheimer.

He had already gotten so bad that he is unable to speak or recognize his family members. But within a week of consuming this food, he started to be able to recognize his family members again.

I believe it is because that this food is high in energy level that helps cell rejuevenation.. especially at the brain because it also contains RHA, DHA ;) It is very very good for the brain.
